A Weird Night

Two nights ago we were going to meet a business partner at her house. However, this is the first time we'll be going there. This is unfamiliar territory for me. Originally, the plan was to meet at 8 pm, but, of course, at the last minute she called us up to say that we have to be there at 7:30.

Ohhh the pressure!! As expected, we couldn't find the way. The instructions were unclear.
"Go straight, if you see Rotana, take left. Round about right. Straight"
 First, which road do we take? And which Rotana? There are like three Rotana's in that area. We turned left but there was no round about....what now?

It was already 8 and we still have not found our way. We just decided to meet at the mall. Once in the parking, I took a parking ticket/stub so I'd know where I put my car. Coz by gaaaaad!! We're already late, we can't afford to lose the car in the middle of this huge parking lot!

Anyway, that's exactly what happened. I lost my car! Yep, even with the stub. I so hate that mall!! Took me about 10 minutes before I found it. Apparently there was a "mezzanine" for every floor. The reason why I can't find my car is because the elevator does not stop at these mezzanine floors. Gaah!

My business partner rode with us so that we won't get lost trying to find her house again. The meeting went fine. But when we went to her garage, my front tire was flat! Susme lang talagang kamalasan. Since these are "locals", we didn't even expect them to help. Its already 12 MN. And so for the very first time nagpalit ako ng gulong! (I changed the tire with a little help from my little cousin! LOL)

But of course, when I was all done, the spare tire is also flat! It's such a cruel joke, universe!! I had to drive really slow till we got to a petrol station and had some air pumped. 

Despite the weirdness, it was a good night.

  2. Mismo! Pero kulang lang sa hangin ang spare. Nakakatakot lang kasi baka masira ng tuluyan. Wala lang talaga choice kundi i drive sa petrol station eh. Buti na lang hindi masyado malayo.
